"If you visit weld forums or project building forums, you’ll find lots of unexplained failures with Home Depot steel."
Sure. But one has no idea what the actual cause of the failure is. Most pro's don't buy at HD. So that leaves the general public. Add to that it's an internet form leaving little to gauge where the truth lies, that's a bad example to wave.
"Add that Home Depot and typical hardware steel costs more as well"
Of course it costs more. They sell little bits, one bit at a time, and infrequently compared to other stuff. Not seeing your point on that.
"From your description, you’ve also already had your tie down mount bend which you think is good. At least you have some work hardening started now."
LOL
"You only have to search and read to realize that the US Steel Industry is strong."
Yep, when all else fails, just start the flag waving.....
